Questions to consider
Implement

Let’s do it!
Am I making progress through the plan? Yes I have done lots of my information.
Am I doing this correctly? You may need to review your goal for this activity? I think I am doing it properly.
Do I need to revise my plan? As you continue, you may discover facts that require changing the plan. I look back at my plan to see what I need to do and what needs to go where.
Am I satisfied with the text/graphics/pictures that I have created? Yes I like them.

Evaluate

How well did I do?
Did I complete the task as originally set out? Did I solve the problem? Know I couldn’t do a border because gimp wouldn’t let me put a border around anything
Is the text as interesting or informative as intended? Yes
Are the graphics and images appealing? I think so I think they are.

What have I done? I have done my project on keeping your password safe
What have I done really well? Is there anything that stands out as particularly good? My title it is really colourful.

Is there anything that needs improvement? Should I go back and redo anything? I would like there to be one more picture and some of my words got cut off.

Am I ready to communicate my ideas or show/display my work to others? Is the poster ready to be shown to others? Yes I think it looks good.

How have I improved since that last time I worked on a similar task?
I have used a different program so I think I have learnt something new.
